Choosing the Right Whole-Home Humidifier for Your Furnace

It won’t be long before we are adjusting our thermostats to provide us warmer air and make our homes nice and cozy during the cooler months. And warmer air equates to drier air that can impact our overall health. You may have never contemplated monitoring humidity levels inside, or maybe you’re trying to find just the right balance. We’ve talked about the benefits of a whole-home humidifier from lowering the chances of getting sick to helping with your skin. But how do you know which system is the best for your family? 

If you aren’t familiar, a whole-home humidifier uses water directly from your water supply and the water panel only needs to be changed a couple times during the heating season. There are more up-front costs to start, but there is less maintenance, lower energy costs and mold prevention down the road. 

There are a couple things you’ll need to consider when shopping for a whole-home humidifier. 

  • Size—The humidifier’s size and capacity is based on gallons per day of operation. One way to decide what size you want is to take your total floor area and multiply it by the height of your home’s ceiling. This will help determine how many gallons per hour is needed and be a guide as you assess your options. 
  • Budget—There are initial fees when purchasing the humidifier equipment, but it’s important to also acknowledge how much money will go into operation and maintenance. There are many models that can help meet the needs in your home while sticking to a budget you are comfortable with. 

All homes and families are different. Our team at Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing can provide you with a home health report to help you pick which humidifier is appropriate for your home. And our assessment will ensure you are getting the best solution to fit your current HVAC system. We want to make sure you rest easy during the cooler season and that you have the support you need to maintain proper indoor air quality.
